Bridge Broken Down.

Last Thursday, the bridge over the
"Rattlesnake' near McKinnie's mill,
broke down with team of Thos. Webb,
the we'll driller. The team was driven
by Theodore Weber. The stringers
broke, and precipitated team and driver
into the water twenty feet below. MIR.
Webb and Dan Starr had just passed
over, and hearing the crash ran back
to find the horses lying one on the other
in the bed of the stream, and Weber ly-
ing in the water underneath the heavy
drilling machine. Fortunately the ma
chine rested partly on the fallen timbers
of the bridge, or he would have been
crushed to death. AS it was, he came
near drowning. He was rescued, and
though considerably bruised, has been
able to be about ever since. Bridges of
that size should be carefully inspected,
and any defects reported before such ac-
cidents call attention to them.

Obituary-GleasOn.

Last Saturday morning, the sad news
was brought to us of the death OF Eu-
gene Gleason. He was the only son OF
III. C. Gleason. who lives east of Ian
caster in the town of Ellenboro. FIRE.
land Eugene Gleason was young man
of much promise. He had been stu
dent of the Platteville Normal school
for several years and although he had
not quite completed the course, had
been engaged as teacher of school
near Platteville He had recently pur-
chased piece of land which he was
getting under cultivation for farm
and in vacations was working to make
the final payments on it. With a nat
urally strong constitution, the outdoor
life on the farm had enabled him to
develope physically as his mental work
progressed. In the twenty-one years
of his life he had never known = days
sickness, until the fatal attacts OF ma
larial fever came from which he never
recovered. The long line of slowly
moving carriages. last Sunday after
noon bore testimony to the high regard
in which he was held by all who knew
him and who wished to show their
sympathy to the Borrowing father,
mother and sister. That losses like
theirs are not uncommon does not make
their loss less easy to bear; The lone
illness in their home is the same, a son,
brother gone out of their lives leaves
a vacancy that can never be filled. Mr.
Gleason had just begun life that give
more than ordinary promise of being a
good and useful one.
His industry, perseverance and man
ly adherance to duty had gained for
him the good will and respect OF all
who knew him.
Unlike most young men who are
working for a higher education, he had
decided upon his life work, and kept 1t
steadily in view while preparing himself
for it. The Normal School has lost an
earnest worker. the public school a faith
full teacher, the community one of its
best young men, and the family, the
loved one upon whom their hopes were
conferred. They have the utmost SYM
patty OF all in their great affection.

The Women of Central soudan.

The women of the household have
got over their first tremors, and come
to the conclusion that we are a good
natured and harmless sort of fellows.
At first they peep over the wall or out
of neighboring doorways, till, growing
holder, they venture in groups out OF
their hiding places % see, and doubtless
to be seen. Not to alarm them, we
take notes surreptitiously, and observe
that they make up quite an ethnologi-
cal collection of African types. Fillani
Haussa women from the neighborhood,
Nupe and Yoruba specimens from the
Niger districts, and others from the
tribes of Adamawa and the Benue
region. Clearly our friend is man
of catholic tastes in the matter Of
women. His harem presents all kinds
of face and figures, from the copper
colored Fillani, with slender. 1.-the
figure, well-shaped face, and positively
beautiful eyes, to the shapeless form,
black skin, ugly face, and muddy eyes
Of the lowest negro type. They are all
dressed alike, with lower tHFkeSt or
cloth around the waist, hanging to the
ankles, second sheet wound round
the body under the armpits, and q third
worn in the varied modes of shawl on
the head and shoulder. The hair is
gathered into solid ridge of grease
and hair, which extends from the brow
to the nape of the neck, something
after the manner of the crest of he'll
met. From each temple hangs kind
of stiff love-lock. The ankles are
adorned with enormously heavy anklets
of solid brass. the bar being little short
of an inch and half in thickness, the
ends ornamented with neatly made
polygonal beads. Nothing better
finished could be turned out of
European workshop. Round the wrist
are placed several more brass brace
let's, not so expansively made, but col
lectively so heavy that TO ease their
arms the wearers are frequently to be
seen with hands clasped behind the
head or hanging down their backs.
The ornaments usually include a string
of agate beads made in the country.
The women, unlike the men, do not
affect white colors, the more fashion
able cloths being checks Of dark blue,
a medium tint of the same, white, and
Magenta. Among those who can afford
expensive articles the latter two colors
are prevalent.
Strangers are not usually admitted
into the family compound, but it must
not be supposed that the women are
strictly kept inside and never let out
Quite the reverse. In the evening
they are almost invariably left at
liberty to wander forth and join in any
dance OF merry-making there may be
afoot, and would not like to be re-
sponsible for the statement that their
behavior is always of the best ON these
occasions. During the day, also, if
any Of the women have anything to
buy or sell at the market, there is no
restriction to their going thither. In
the more wealthy families, however,
there is always one if not two wives
who are kept in strict seclusion, and
not unfrequently eunuchs are employed
to guard the moral Of the harem.-

The Grant County Fair.
The Thirty second Annual Exhibition ar
the Grant County Agricultural So
clety.

Fair time has come and gone and
again we have the satisfaction OF re-
cording successful fair. The weather
was Iost discouraging on the first day
but Exhibits kept pouring in along with
the rain. The second day was pretty
cloudy with some rain in the fore
noon which kept many people away
and the crowd was not large. But
the third day was nearly perfect. The
sun and wind had quickly dried the
roads and put the track in excellent
condition.
The crowd on the grounds on Friday
was estimated at from to thousand.
The receipts were nearly $1,000. The
officers of the fair are deserving of
much credit for the way in which they
prepare for crowd of people and en-
terrain them when they come. Every
body went away satisfied and all agree
in pronouncIng this one of the most sue
cessful fairs ever held on the grounds.

In Memory Of Bonnie Howard wierman.

Just fifteen months ago to-day
We laid our darling Bennie'away,.
His little snow white hands were folded
Folded over his silent breast.
His little voice lie hushed forever,
His little feet are now at rest.
We laid away his toys and playthings.
No little footsteps are in the room
All lie silent and Oh so lonely
Fer he is gone our Bonnie 10 gone.
We looked upon his childish brow.
So marble white SO peaceful now,
And could not check our tears
As looking round the lonly room
We think of weary days to como
Through the coming years.
We miss the tramp of his little feet,
We miss his smiling face so sweet,
With every coming year.
We miss his laugh OF childish glee,
We mourn our dear one sadly
That cheered our lonely way.
Yet we knew though our hearts be tried
Through suffering much denied
We've only little while to wait
One walketh by US in the night
And yonder burns the lamp light
Wen reach the pearly gate.
